I think I've forgotten how I found this movie by chance and thought it was worth it. I always have a faint and indescribable affection for French movies. I like the scenes of French movies, the long shots of French movies, the slowness of French movies, and the authenticity and delicacy of the plot. Every time I see Juliet's in the movie The eyes always feel that there will be a lot of stories to happen, and I like the special feeling of this actor.

When Juliet was released from prison and began to live in her own home, she showed a little bit of her life after that. The sisters, who met after 15 years, became familiar with each other and began to face the impact of prison life on the entire family, family members and current life together. Juliet regularly went to see prison officials, looked for work, went on vacation with Lea's family to a friend's country house, met her mother in a nursing home, went to art galleries with Lea's colleagues, and went swimming with her. Juliet began to gradually get out of the prison life. She went from being silent and rigid to gradually adapting to the life outside. Lea and her husband gradually understood and accepted the sister who once killed their son. There are still many conflicts in the film, but they all have French elegance and restraint. Just like the detailed descriptions of French films, Juliet's costumes are also dark and cold at the beginning, and gradually become bright and lively. Juliet is changing in many small details, and this change is delicate but not abrupt in the way of French cinema.

The real reason why Juliet killed her son was revealed at the end of the film. Her son was terminally ill. In order to relieve his pain, she "couldn't bear it" and killed him because he struggled in pain. When I saw this, my heart was moved, I felt sorry for this great mother, and I realized more deeply that human nature is about dealing with how to alleviate the pain and contradiction between people. Respond to real-world problems with a variety of interpretive and technical approaches. Humanism does not touch the ultimate question. That's its blind spot. Remove God and faith from life, and only rely on human wisdom to face and solve various propositions of life.

Humanism does not touch the ultimate - God, death, forgiveness, love. In fact, it also touches, but it only touches on the removal of God, that is, it is human beings to decide life and death, to use sisterhood to obtain forgiveness, and to face sin by subjugation. But this is actually not enough. This is also the blind spot of humanism. The whole film expresses the triumph of humanism with a kind ending of family affection, friendship and love, but it is still depressing and unpleasant. It seems that there is always something lacking in interpreting the heart and love with many materials and technologies.

"I've Always Loved You" was my favorite movie I watched in 2012. Finally, I also bravely wanted to write a movie review to share my opinions. Those slow life narratives, in ordinary daily life Inadvertently mending the broken heart in life, the sun shining into the loving hut, the happy family with the elderly and two adopted children, what a warm picture.
"Anyway, I feel guilty, I brought a child into this world just to sentence him to death, whatever, I don't want anything, I just want to go to jail and try to explain as much as I try to make excuses. And to death , there is no excuse. The most cruel punishment is the death of your child, and it will never be freed from it." Juliet buried this secret with deep guilt, and finally got to the bottom of it, feeling the slightest relief from the movie.

Who has mentioned the words "I'm here" in your ears, how touched and gratified. For the rhythm of the whole film, it is also a very appropriate ending, without being abrupt at all. Crowdale introduced the poetic rhythm of his novel writing into the film, once again seeing the depth of life in the plain.

    This French film has an emotionally undercurrent of quietness. No one is destined to be happy, and the more people go, the less happy they are. The police who pursued the river, and the mother who bears the pain and secrets alone, did not give up at the beginning. It's just that sometimes, I need a warm and powerful hug too much, and if I don't get it, I can despair.

I've Loved You So Long quotes

  • Léa: The novel's narration is impersonal and incomplete, as he refused to give one world view. He knows it's multiple, that intentions are multiple as are truths.

  • Léa: We were there! Didn't we matter?

    Juliette Fontaine: Do you think others matter then - that one cares what they think or do? You were all well and alive! You belonged to the kind one comes to hate for the mere fact that they are there.
